Best Speaker For McIntosh MC225 Tube Amp


I will be using with a Quicksilver preamp. Mostly jazz and occasional light rock. Near field listening in a 12' x 20' room. Currently looking at Proac, Totem and Omega. Budget is $1500 new or used. Thanks in advance for any recommendations or observations.

You will need some sensitive speakers. I agree with the Coincident Tech idea. The Omegas are cool too - I had a pair for a while. Their build is excellent and their sound is good, but only with tubes. Otherwise, Living Voice apparently makes nice speakers but I haven't heard any of them. JM Labs are fairly sensitive as well with a super articulate top end that would work well with a mc225. Good luck! Arthur
